This is a study of fiction by Scottish women spanning the late
1890s to the early 1930s. Seven authors are included: Violet Jacob,
Mary and Jane Helen Findlater, Lorna Moon, Catherine Carswell,
Willa Muir, and Nan Shepherd. It identifies a continuity of
development within and between the women's careers. Each evolved
from writing narratives expected of fiction aimed at the women's
market to more innovative forms which increasingly questioned
traditional values. From this perspective we can locate the authors
in an intriguing relation to the contexts of Scottish literature,
modernist sensibility, and to the feminism asserting itself in that
age of upheaval.
